Coloured Ash Catcher

What is an Ash Catcher?

An ash catcher is a device used in smoking accessories like pipes, bongs, or water pipes. It is designed to catch ash, debris, and residue from the smoke before it enters the main piece, helping to keep it cleaner. Ash catchers typically connect to the joint of the bong or pipe and act as an additional filtration system, trapping unwanted particles. This ultimately improves the smoking experience by ensuring smoother hits and easier maintenance.

Benefits of Using an Ash Catcher

The primary benefit of an ash catcher is cleanliness. By preventing ash and debris from entering the main water chamber, it reduces the buildup of residue in the bong or pipe, extending its life and improving the quality of each session. Additionally, ash catchers can enhance filtration, offering a smoother and cooler smoke by adding an extra layer of water filtration. Some advanced models feature percolators that further improve the filtration process.

Types and Designs

Ash catchers come in various shapes and sizes, with different joint sizes (typically 14mm or 18mm) to fit most standard bongs and pipes. They can be straight or beaker-style, and some are designed with multiple percolators for extra filtration. Additionally, there are specific designs with colored glass or unique features that add to the aesthetic appeal of the device. This allows users to customize their setups according to their preferences for function and style
